Dalea formosa is a semi-evergreen species of flowering plant in the genus Dalea, known by the common names feather dalea and featherplume;[3] it is named for the physician Samuel Dale.[4] The plant is native to the southern United States.[4] It is highly tolerant of heat, cold, and drought.[5][6] It is favored by honeybees; but of much less use to most wildlife, with the exception of rabbits and deer.[7][8] Unique to most plants,[Note 1] it blooms all year long (with the occurrence of monsoon rainfall)[9][10] and also has a long lifespan.[6]
